I have not ask Victor yet, bet have any of you guys get a bulk discount? May be NoDak does but they send off a lot of parts, compare to what I need.
I have a lot of parts to get re anodize. The total price is a little over $2000. GVS |

Well, GVS the last time I sent in $2000 parts.................. Man that is a lot of stuff. I'm going to have to pay you a visit and look at some of your cool things! Feel free to come on down when your in the area. May be we need to have a retro BBQ sometime and invite some of the South Florida retro guy and gals. I have some retro door prizes, M16 Racks in the box. GVS |

I just totaled up the part count:
16 Mag Buttons 11 Uppers 21 Trigger guards 17 Charging handles 6 Buffer tubes 5 Car buffer tubes 1 lower 1 607 Stock 18 Lower parts . May be the naval jelly trick. Some came out good, some were bare steel. I stop at that point. I see how that goes before I place my order. 3 delta rings GVS |

Ya, that's a big bill! I sent him the majority of lower parts, a port door, extension and nut, flat ring and a scope mount and I think it ran over $200 going off his price list. He didn't have the price listed for a scope mount and when I got it back it was an additional $30. (Which reminds me I have to send him a money order for that...I guess I'll add it with another upper I'm getting ready to send him).
I had him do the flat ring in XM. Of course he did a great job, but I think the flat rings look better when they are not the same color as the receiver, maybe more dark or black. I was wondering how the port door would come out. It looks as good as an NOS one I compared it to. It was done the same as the steel parts. |

I going to keep them that way. There some more stuff to add but I have to wait for the final retro build to becomplete. I wanted to get all the parts for each retro build out of the way and refinish when I had most of the builds complete. GVS |
